Inhibition effect of swelling characteristics of expansive soil using cohesive non-swelling soil layer under unidirectional seepage
Cohesive non-swelling soil (CNS) cushion technology is widely used to solve swelling deformation problems in expansive soil areas. However, the swelling inhibition mechanism is still not fully understood. In this study, the inhibition effect on expansive soil using a CNS layer was studied by performing five types of laboratory model tests under unidirectional seepage. The results showed that CNS cushion technology produced a sound inhibition effect on the swelling characteristics of expansive soil. It was shown that the cations in the CNS layer moved downward and accumulated on the surface of solids and produced an electrical environment inside the expansive soil. In this process, the adsorbed hydrated cations participated in ion exchange with the expansive soil, leading to the modification effect on its swelling potential. Meanwhile, the adsorbed water membrane surrounding the expansive soil aggregates formed by the hydrated cations obstructed further adsorption of water molecules, which inhibited the swelling development of expansive soil. Therefore, the swelling inhibition mechanism can be attributed to three factors: (i) modification effect, (ii) electrical environment, and (iii) deadweight of the CNS layer. The combined contribution of modification effect and electrical environment can be considered as an electric charge effect, which mainly controls the swelling characteristics of expansive soil. Keywords: Cohesive non-swelling soil (CNS), Expansive soil, Unidirectional seepage, Electric charge effect, Swelling inhibition mechanism
